What is an advisory board best used for?
An advisory board is best used for getting fresh ideas and feedback for overcoming your biggest challenge, launching a new project, or how to ensure you hit your goals. By getting targeted insights on a specific topic, your advisory board gives you an ongoing stream of fresh ideas on what matters most to you at the current moment.
As professionals we use tools such as Slack for communicating with co-workers, Quickbooks for managing financials, or Notion for saving our ideas. It's about time there was a resource that helps tackle what matters most to your business, team or project.
You’ll be amazed what an advisory board can help you overcome or achieve - there are so many smart people out there who'd love to share their advice with you on your advisory board.

Why is having an advisory board so valuable?
There are incredibly smart people out there who are much more willing to share ideas if they are “on your board” than if you just asked them for advice.
When someone is on your advisory board, they feel “on your team” and willing to give advice, make introductions, and also feel they have a vested interest in your success.
The problem has been establishing and managing an advisory board has historically been very time-consuming and expensive…but not anymore.
For roughly the cost of Slack or Quickbooks, you can have an advisory board to help you overcome challenges, get valuable insights, and reach new heights faster.
AdvisoryCloud has simplified all aspects of starting and managing an advisory board, and brought the cost to a level that makes it possible for anyone to have an advisory board.

Why would I want people to join my advisory board instead of following me on social media?
Because they will be willing to do so much more for you. Being on someone’s advisory board is a much deeper connection than following someone on social media. Advisory board members are much more open to making introductions, providing a testimonial, giving detailed and valuable feedback, and so much more. Plus, if you decide to have quarterly video-conference board meetings, they get a behind-the-scenes look at what is happening and form a much deeper connection with you and what you are doing.

How can I invite people to join my advisory board?
When you click on the “Invite +” button in the nav bar, you’ll find your “advisory board link.” You can use this to invite people to join your advisory board for free in a variety of ways:
- Share the url in a social media post inviting them to join your advisory board
- Add to your personal profile on LinkedIn - with one click they can join
- Add to your bios on social media like Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok
- Add to your personal profile on LinkedIn - with one click they can join your board for free (use the LinkedIn Promote button above)
- Invite customers to get a behind-the-scenes look

- Add to your web site with your advisory board icon next to your social media icons
- Add anywhere else you have traffic where you can form deeper relationships with your audience

Why would I want to have moderated quarterly board meetings?
First, because it forms a deeper connection with your advisory board members.
Second, because committing to them quarterly “forces” you to stop what you’re doing, share an update, and get helpful new ideas on your biggest challenge or ways to hit your goals.
When you get a smart group of people all focused on overcoming one specific challenge, giving you feedback on something, or brainstorming ways to reach a goal, you’ll be amazed at what a one-hour video-conference board meeting can do for you.
You can conduct the board meetings yourself, or upgrade to a Gold Plan (Settings, View Upgrade Options) and AdvisoryCloud will moderate them for you.

What if I already have an advisory board?
Many companies already have an advisory board or a board of directors (public companies) due to investors who use this as a form of oversight.
But this doesn’t mean you can’t start another advisory board with a specific focus - overcoming one challenge, expanding into a new location, or even for one specific team at your company.
Advisory boards are one of the most under-utilized tools in the business world, and we are already seeing a growing trend with teams and individuals starting them in addition to businesses. Give yourself and your business an edge, have multiple advisory boards and see how it helps you reach new heights faster.

Why would I want to have a 1,000 person advisory board?
The bigger your advisory board, the more advocates and ideas for your business, team or personal project.
Plus, diversity of ideas really important. And there is just no way a 5-10 person advisory board can have that. You want different aged people, different stages of life, different genders, different locations, races and viewpoints.
When you follow a business or person on social media, it’s fairly superficial. Someone that is on your advisory board feels much more empowered to help you and your business in any way you’d find helpful.
Wait until you see all the ways and ideas that a truly large advisory board can help your business/team/special project reach new heights faster.

Can I have more than one advisory board?
Absolutely. We are seeing a growing trend at companies with multiple teams within a company each having their own advisory board.
Plus, our mission is that every one should have an advisory board.
We see a future where you have a personal advisory board for your side-project, one for your career, and then ones you have at work.
